Unlike gravity-fed camp showers that have to be suspended overhead and produce woeful water pressure, the HELIO LX from Nemo Equipment is a travel solar shower that sits firmly on the ground and provides the pressure needed for a good shower.
Thanks to its system, this model offers sufficient pressure for washing hair, doing the dishes, rinsing equipment, watering plants or washing the dog. It's alsoquick and easy to pressurise the voluminous 22-litre tankusinga foot pumpandhold it at full pressure for 7 to 10 minutes of strong, continuous spraying. Like a solar shower, all you have to do is place the black tank in the sun so that it heats up gradually, or fill it directly with hot water.
Finally, its neoprene hose is long enough to hold it high enough for a shower, or to reach all the corners of dirty equipment.
